This has been quite a journey. Saw the A4000TX project at the last Amiga Ireland and found the concept quite interesting. Had been away from the Amiga community for around a decade at that point. Hadn't seen anything like it, and discovered a lot of projects had come to light during my absence...

I recall using a program earlier that could generate files and test writing. I think it mainly was to test the file system, but could probably be used to test writing speed in various scenarios. Unfortunately I am completely lost on what the name was.

Looks like it. There is a sales thread from May last year for $<snip>. Doesn't look like the sale went through. Found another thread where one sold for the same amount in 2023. There are other threads for faulty cards and they are still several hundred dollars. I have built a 4000 for less than...

I have both an original AES and a MVS built into a console. The MVS had much cheaper games, but it is many years ago I were active with collecting for it. Not sure how the market is now. Couldn't imagine buying this console and games when commercially available. A great console. Many fighting...

Now someone just need to make an affordable accelerator card with UW-SCSI. Looking at the sales history, a CS MK3 is more than what I paid for my A4000 motherboard. Yikes.

I don't think the cable will fit. I initially tried a 3.5mm straight cable but it collided with the motherboard/case. An angled male jack is most likely needed. I opted for the 3 pin header and applied socket crimps and a socket housing to the cable that goes out the back. As Xanxi mentioned...

I did fit a fan since I sometimes overclock. I believe I got this fan along with some tiny passive heat sinks. The fan assembly has to be mounted offset since it collides with the keyboard. The passive heat sinks were filed down to clear the keyboard. Here are some pictures of the audio...

It picks up the audio signals on the expansion connector. Pins 146, 147 and 148. How the software works and the register value is explained in the included manual. The software it self is fairly basic with just a couple of sliders for CPU clock, passthrough audio level and a CPU temperature...

Got one of these cards my self. I like that it also provides a native audio passthrough, making it possible to use one cable. There is one caveat, and that is the register controlling the passthrough has to be set. Normally this is done by the Trinity software when Workbench starts. If starting...

Responded both on PM.

Looking for a full/maxi/big tower AT case. Must be in good condition with covers and spacers. Shipping to Norway. Paying with PayPal goods and services.

Precisely. Setting up the SCSI devices isn't hard. You just need to keep in mind to move around the termination if you add or subtract devices, as well as assigning the IDs. As for the termination resistors. The ones I linked earlier are appropriate for the 3000. The datasheet call the resistor...

I'm not very familiar with unterminated symptoms, to be honest. I'm one of those strange people that read the manual, or at least try to. 🤓 You do describe that the ZuluSCSI acknowledge the existance of the image file, it is named correctly, double checked cable orientation but also describe...

Sounds like your host (controller) is not terminated. I'm not familiar with the 3000, but if you have sockets for resistor networks, these need to be installed. An alternative would be a terminator connected to your external port. You can buy appropriate resistor networks from Mouser. I use...

Tried to install the motherboard into an old maxi tower ATX case I have. Old Aopen case from the late 90s that have both AT and ATX holes available. Fits perfect apart from that the disk module doesn't have a slot available and can't be installed without butchering the case. Real bummer. Turns...
